Red hair. Librarian. She/Her. Queer. Probably trying to convince you to play ffxiv. Still not actually Batgirl.

AI automation =/= AI generation. the scripts to automatically transcribe voice to text or whether your party character prioritizes Attack or Defense isn't the same as algorithms generating randomized results out of an amalgamation of existing data. conflating them is intentionally misleading.

James Gunn has openly said he wants Batmite and honestly I think if you are a director who wants to differentiate yourself from the gloomy Batman movies of the last 25 years, a movie about Batman dealing with Batmite might legitimately be the best way to do it.

Love that DS9 trains you to see an episode open with the O'Briens on a nice little happy family picnic on a beautiful day and immediately brace yourself to expect the most traumatic psychologically distressing and emotionally devastating story you've ever seen

some significant part of this is just catch-all fear for “this is not the child I ordered” I think
Oh, here's a big surprise. The transphobes don't believe in ADHD either.
then, the transphobes , feeling victorious at how many people they have made unhappy and despairing in the previous week, move on to anything else that has a spectrum and the possibility of more colours than they can conceive - such hateful people - they cannot understand anything that is not THEM

Digital fingerprinting has made an alarming comeback this year, with Google reversing its ban on this secretive, obfuscated technology that cannot be disabled. Given tracking cookies offer opt-outs, it’s bad news for users that fingerprinting do not.

I’ve been in a Metroid mood lately, so I took some photos of my old Samus figure out in the snow today. This might be my favourite shot I’ve taken in a long time! #toyphoto

First ever character was on Mateus because that's where @panthernga.bsky.social had randomly started. Bounced around to like 3 other servers because I kept starting over. Finally rolled my current main on Mateus like 10 months after I started playing to see if original FC was still active -

For players: Which server are you from? 🗺️ Is there a story behind why you chose that server? And do you mind friends visiting you there?

I had two babies in the NICU and I can tell you that managing C-section pain by yourself sucks a LOT, but being unable to see your hospitalized baby is the worst possible pain. I am typing this through tears, remembering what it was like, and my younger NICU baby is almost 17.
“Guzmán’s daughter was still in the NICU, unable to eat or breathe independently. The doctors had planned a meeting to review the baby’s prognosis and care plans… As Guzmán went to buckle her seatbelt, she looked out the window and noticed they were surrounded.”
Her baby was in the NICU. She was in ICE detention.
Before Trump took office, postpartum immigrants were rarely detained by ICE. Nayra Guzmán was detained while her 15-day-old baby was in the NICU.

My forever ire towards every last person who had the power in government and/or elsewhere to affect change with FINALLY upgrading society-wide airflow/air filtration standards post-COVID and did *nothing*.
We're half a decade into studies finding that improving airflow in classrooms will reduce disease transmission enormously, and that bleaching surfaces etc. does very little. And yet nothing changes. Waves of flu and colds wash over schools, and the schools pretend it's an act of God.
